Topical Focus Event: Mental Health and well-being in the Workplace

Self-management is closely tied to the aspiration for self-fulfillment and the capacity to adjust to a dynamic environment and changing world. Innovation and failure go hand in hand, and most groundbreaking innovations typically don't occur on the initial try. That's why self-management encompasses skills like resilience, stress management, and adaptability, as these are the capabilities needed to uphold a positive mindset when facing unforeseen or unfamiliar circumstances. On the other hand, the state of mental health today is marked by significant challenges, including the rising prevalence of mental health issues at the workplace, such as chronic stress, depression, anxiety, and burnout, barriers to access, and ongoing stigma.  

Come to this interactive workshop to try out some practical techniques to decrease stress, increase your resilience, and support yourself and others in difficult life situations. 

The panel discussion with professionals from HR, organizational psychology, and counseling will reveal their experience with mental health at the workplace, possibilities for support of colleagues and organizations, and provide a space for discussion about mental health issues at the workplace.
